The Direction of Intention

11.

Join me in inspiring truly powerful people. Each day I will add a new thought, story or idea to support your quest and mine.

Truly powerful people are dedicated to inspiring true power in others.

It is helpful to think of it as a simple question of focus placement: where do you choose to place your focus: on the outcome or on the process.

Truly powerful people know that there is no place of arrival called “happiness” or “success;” they know an outcome-focus is an illusion, it requires trading this moment of life for an idea of life in the future. It is a trap.

A focus placed on process opens the door to the present moment. It is a choice to engage with the person, the idea, and the experience that you are having now. It is a choice to invest your self in the quality of the immediate engagement. It allows for subtlety, for vulnerability, it opens hearts to receive and to give. It affords you the opportunity to see what is there, not what you think is there.

Artistry is not an outcome it is a process. Mastery is not an outcome it is a relationship.

Where do you choose to place your focus? What might you see if being present in this moment was more important than “getting there” someday?
